Quote:Yes, but if you succeed and get caught you get a different message, so we can tell what happened.

Definitely one of the things I'll look at.

Couple of things to consider:

1. IF there is a bug, maybe it's in the failure to notify if the target is guarded?

2. Doesn't a ward decrease the chance of success by a fixed percentage? I.E. if a level 20 agent tries to kidnap an envoy (I'm assuming a 100% success rate) who is warded, wouldn't his chance by more along the lines of 80% or even 60% (don't know what the ward contributes). And that's not including the % hit that Cipher mentioned in an earlier post regarding escape.

Might be totally of base, but food for thought.

THANK YOU, CIPHER! That's pretty much all I was asking or hoping for.

And thank you, as always, for providing excellent customer service. All my best.

I've made a correction to the formula and posted a note in known issues as well.

Sorry ..was out of the loop on this until Hawk mentioned the thread. I have failed my only 295 attempt in 118 at what should have been 75%.

I did successfully use it many times in 106 though.

Edit: I guess I should have read the whole thread before I posted. Seems like it's all settled and put to bed.

Comment withdrawn, wasn't intended that way at all.

Just wondering, I'm still not seeing the "sleep" verbiage on the early kidnaps, when an emissary was slept the previous turn. Having analyzed the formula, do you have any idea whether it's being factored in, but just isn't being listed on the verbiage? Or is it not being factored in?

(On background, I had previously asked whether resetting sleeps at the start of every new turn disrupted the early kidnap benefit, and I was told the early kidnap benefit was still in place.)

Now if someone would grab data for HP's dying on artifact location divinations. That seems to be the only time they die on me Smile
